Tim Omrod: How personality impacts ministry teams

The Pastor's Heart with Dominic Steele

I want to be a big hearted encourager like Barnabas. I want to be a reliable assistant like Timothy. I want to be passionate preacher like Apollos.
When you think about the qualifications for Christian ministry in 1Timothy 3, the significance of personality is pretty much ignored.
What is the relationship between character and personality? Some one is all about structure and someone elose is much more ‘loosy-goosy/flexible.’
When there’s conflict in church or in a ministry teams - it’s often put down to personality difference or sometimes even disorder.
What does the bible say about all this?
Tim Omrod serves with the Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students (AFES) at Griffith University on the Gold Coast and has just finished a study of the co-workers of Paul.
